The Train Carrying Jimmie Rodgers Home

verse 1: Oh, Come along my dear The time is growing near We'll have to walk down where the field is overgrown Consumption claimed his life And we dare not miss the sight Of the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home verse 2: We’ve had some hard times These past few years We lost the farm almost lost our spirits too Oh, but it's the strangest thing When we heard that man sing Oh, we knew somehow we'd make it through I can hear that whistle blow That old train is rolling slow Sounds like it's crying for the singing brakeman too Back to the sunny south he'll go And he'll never roam no more Here comes the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home Instrumental 1X – VERSE CHORDS: verse 3: Come here my little son And let me hold you up I want you to - remember when - you are grown How your mama and your dad Were so proud and so sad Watching the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home I can hear that whistle blow That old train is rolling slow Sounds like it's crying for the singing brakeman too Back to the sunny south he'll go And he'll never roam no more Here comes the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home Here comes the train carrying Jimmie Rodgers home (YODEL THIS)
